Todays cars are absolute pigs. Where is Alain Prost when you need him? Need to go back to 1990-ish car sizes/rules.
That's a small-ish part of it. I think that safer fuel-cell placement and fitting hybrid power plants added a lot more length.
Aero as well, the 2017-2021 cars had something like 70cm of extra empty gearbox just to improve flow to the rear of the car. They reduced it IIRC but it's still there. Unfortunately, there won't be a push for smaller cars anytime soon. With the 2026+ cars planned to be significantly down on power, the plan is to claw back the lap time with aerodynamics. That's why there's rumblings of active aero, but I think the easiest and most likely choice will be a longer floor.
They are basically the same size as an F350 crew cab dually now. Not much. I just do not like it. I think that I would have far rather seen George win than Hamilton plays a big part in my opinion too.
Audi seems to be stacking the talent,,,while Red Bull is outta cards ....we'll see. https://www.planetf1.com/news/audi-jonathan-wheatley-f1-team-boss-role-outlined https://www.autosport.com/f1/news/b...ley-loss-more-than-neweys-departure/10641153/
Nah, Red Bull is totally fine. They're sticking with Perez, who will totally turn his performance around and will be a championship contender next year!
Not just you. I hate things like that. At my pharmacy, they have a little sign on the counter that gives some sort of warning about narcotics. It is crooked. I spent over a year prying on that thing with my fingernails on each visit. I finally got it to break loose. Win! It is no longer crooked.
https://www.crash.net/f1/news/10537...milton-driven-mclaren-auctioned-massive-price Absolutely loved this era of McLaren and driven by Montoya and Hamilton. Montoya is only second to Zanardi on my list of all time favorites on 4 wheels.
My brother has been an IndyCar spotter for over 25 years. He says Montoya was the most impressive driver he's ever seen while sitting up in the 1st turn spotters stand. Most guys drift out, let off the gas, gain composure, then back on the throttle. Montoya would fishtail down the whole short chute, never lifting. It wasn't always faster, but it was an awesome site to see. Alex Zanardi was one of my favorites also. His whole racing story is just amazing, incredible guy. There's a couple documentaries about him that are a must watch for any racing fan.
